Get Quick Featured Images Pro

Quick Featured Images Pro is a magic bullet that will enable me to easily assign groups of featured images to my Custom Post Types. It was just what I needed on a new site that will have thousands of posts requiring art on each one. The first time I tried to use it, we had problem and reported it on the forum. The developer quickly responded with suggestions. When those did not work, I gave him wp-admin login info and he reported that everything was fixed with the latest upgrade, which he had installed and tested. His response was through, understandable, and complete. I do appreciate the professional support and recommend the plugin to all who could use it.

What users said

I was nervous to pay for the pro version because I've bought plenty of pro plugins in the past that don't work or are outdated, and it's tough to get a refund for them. But I'm happy to say this plugin exceeded my expectations, despite the high price. I'm running WordPress v. 4.9.8 with the Avada theme v. 5.7.2 and this plugin works great! I was able to take use the first photo embedded in over 400 posts as the featured image for that post. It took me less than 5 minutes, and there was zero confusion or hassle. Good purchase, thanks for the awesome plugin, it saved me hours and hours of work!

Love this plugin. I needed to add almost 1,000 featured images and instead of taking forever doing it manually, the plugin did in practically no time at all. Definitely recommend it. I contacted support with a question and was helped immediately, which was great too.

I lost all the featured images previously set when moving to a new template on a staging server. I spent hours trying to resolve this tinkering with SQL queries and existing code. I eventually came across this plugin and have been able to set featured images without overwriting existing ones for those already featured. Great plugin. I'm looking forward to exploring some of the other features. My only frustration was not finding this earlier!!

The software keeps its promises: easy installation, seamless usage, results as required - what do you want more? PS: I recommend to buy the PRO version, if you run a professional website and need more features.
